:-)  Technically, UTC does change due to the addition of leap seconds.
Since 1972 there have been 23 seconds added with the most recent added in
December of last year.  The prior change was in 1999.  And just so there's
no panic: No leap second will be added in December this year.  (whew!  the
work week is long enough as it is! :-)  )
